DESCRIPTION:Understanding trajectories of change is crucial for marine con
 servation and management\, but systematic data typically only reach back a
  few decades. Fish bones from archaeological sites represent a rich source
  of longer-term diachronic data on past populations\, on human exploitatio
 n\, and - crucially - on the relationship between the two. This talk showc
 ases some of the types of data that can be drawn from archaeological remai
 ns\, and discusses their potential and limitations.
